john boehner, sorry, you had me for a week or two. so i understand exactly what you're saying. too many commentators, myself included, we think there's a big election result and that all these branches move in unison. these republicans, at some point, two, three weeks from now are going to be rising up. >> you just said what i wanted to say better. i think that's exactly right. everybody else in the system has a different kind of clock than obama. and if the president -- every day that passes, the president loses, i think, the potential for leverage. >> so we agree. >> we agree. >> i disagree about one thing. i think there's a reasonably good chance that we'll have a big deal. by the time we get to the spring, we might not have that big deal between now and january 1st, but whether we would have a small deal as paving the way toward the big deal or whether we kick the can in such a way as to give us enough time to get to a big deal, i their there's a reasonable chance we'll look up in march or april and have something like they were t

one thing that is giving folks hope, the fact that house speaker john boehner and eric cantor seem to be working more in lock step now than they were during the summer of 2011. if that holds, it really could help the house of representatives to get on 3w0rd of some type of idea. >> we've heard from chairman bernanke and others. how much of a factor will the fed and the ceos of all these major companies be as we get closer to this major deadline? >> one of the questions is how do people react where all these tax increase, all these spending cuts take effect. if there's no deal in the middle of december, say, do we start to see some real impacts? do companies start slowing their capital spending plans, do they start holding up on hiring. there's a risk that there could be economic damage even if there is a deal by january 1. maybe we haven't reached full agreement yet but we're close. we're almost there. i think having a sense that there's momentum and things are going the right direction is important for business confidence and getting through this without any economic downturn. >> nei
